Overview

Enkhbayar's Olympiad Chess: Multi-Board Team Matches reimagines team chess as something more than four separate duels scored on a single sheet. In the traditional format, teammates wear the same jersey but never touch the same board. Here, the boards are physically linked down the middle, turning a collection of 1v1 games into one connected battlefield. It is a strategy title from developer and publisher Enkhbayar, released on November 11, 2026, and it supports both single-player and online PvP.

Highlights

  • The shared center is the heart of the design: ranks 4 and 5 form a corridor that connects every board in the match, so pieces can move between games.
  • Cross-board support lets you slide a piece into the middle and then cross over to reinforce an ally or strike an opponent on an adjacent board.
  • The package covers solo play, multiplayer and online PvP, with a 3D and 2D presentation and interface languages including English, Japanese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Armenian, Icelandic and Uzbek.

Who It's For

This one is aimed at chess players who enjoy the social side of the game but find team events a little lonely — you share a result, not a position. If you like the idea of a teammate's rook arriving to break a pin on your board, the shared corridor is exactly the hook. Strategy fans who prefer coordination and timing over raw opening theory will also find something fresh here, and the single-player option makes it approachable for those who want to learn the flow before going online.
